To let someone know. There are two Durability sections on Thor's powers and one of them need to be removed. Can someone removed it please?(Adtoler (talk) 23:23, July 10, 2019 (UTC))

There are no feats in Thor's agility and reflexes section of his Powers and Abilities, only a citation. Also, did he not show geokinesis with his chasm opening in The Mighty Thor when he returned as King of Asgard in Odin's place? Ragnarok189 (talk) 17:00, September 17, 2019 (UTC)

Lost powers and abilities information from Thor's Wikipedia page[]

Hello. The following information was removed from Thor's Wikipedia page due to being based on primary sources. Is it acceptable to add much of it here?

"Like all Asgardians, Thor is incredibly long-lived and relies upon periodic consumption of the Golden Apples of Idunn to sustain his extended lifespan, which to date has lasted many millennia. Being the son of Odin and the elder goddess Gaea, Thor is physically the strongest of the Asgardians.[1][2][3][4][5] Thor is capable of incredible feats of strength, such as lifting the almost Earth-sized Midgard Serpent,[6] supporting a weight equivalent to that of 20 planets,[7] destroying Surtur's solar system-sized dimensional portal (by combining his power with that of Beta Ray Bill),[8] and allegedly overpowering infinite gravity.[9] By exerting himself to his maximum, he moved the Worldengine, which held the World Tree, which contains nine universal space-time continuums, and significantly affected their timelines.[10] If pressed in battle, Thor is capable of entering into a state known as the "Warrior's Madness" ("berserkergang" in Norwegian and Danish alike), which will temporarily increase his strength and stamina tenfold, although in this state he attacks friend and foe alike.[11][12][13]

Thor is extremely durable to physical injuries.[14][15][16] He has even survived energy blasts from Celestials.[17] Thor possesses keen senses[18] that allow him to track objects travelling faster than light[19] and hear cries from the other side of the planet.[20] His stamina allowed him to battle the entire Frost Giant army for nine months without any sustenance or rest;[21] Thor has shown the ability to regenerate wounded portions of his body,[22] including entire limbs or organs, with the aid of magical forces such as Mjolnir.[22] Thor has superhuman speed, agility, and reflexes, enabling him to deflect bullets with his hammer,[23] and to swing or throw it at many times the speed of light.[24][25][26] In early stories, Thor demonstrated vortex breath, which produces powerful winds.[27] Like all Asgardians, he has immunity to all Earthly diseases and is resistant to magic. Exceptionally powerful magic can overwhelm Odin's enchantment that transforms him between Asgardian and mortal forms.[28]

As the Norse god of thunder, Thor can summon the elements of the storm (lightning, rain, wind, snow) and uses Mjolnir as a tool to focus this ability, although the hammer cannot command artificial weather, only natural. He can cause these weather effects over the world and destroy entire buildings; by whirling his hammer he can lift entire buildings with the wind.[3] Thor can also create small tornadoes by quickly whipping his cape in circles.[23] As the son of the Earth goddess Gaea, Thor has shown control over the Earth.[29][30]

Thor is a superb hand-to-hand combatant, and is skilled in armed combat, excelling in the use of the war hammer, sword, axe and mace. Thor possesses two items which assist him in combat: the enchanted Belt of Strength, and his signature weapon, the mystical hammer Mjolnir. The first item doubles Thor's strength and endurance[31] whereas the second is used to control his weather abilities; flight; energy projection and absorption (sufficient to drain the galaxy-destroying Null Bomb, and use its energy to reignite a dying star);[32] dimensional travel; matter manipulation,[33][34][35] the Thermo-blast,[36] the Anti-Force (which counteracts another force),[37] and the God Blast, that taps into Thor's life force and has even forced Galactus to flee.[38][39] Using Mjolnir by throwing it in the desired direction and then holding on to the handle's leather loop, Thor can fly at supersonic speeds within Earth's atmosphere and much faster than light in outer space. He can also use the hammer to create a barrier by letting it spin in a circle, and even managed to contain an explosion powerful enough to destroy 1/5th of the Universe, although at the cost of his own life.[40] He can throw an object out of Earth's atmosphere by using his strength,[41] and throw his hammer to Asgard from which it will return.[18]

When Thor has to transport companions and/or objects to a destination by himself, he has a chariot drawn by two huge mystical goats called Toothgnasher and Toothgrinder that can fly nearly anywhere he desires almost as easily as with Mjolnir.[42]

Mjolnir also has the following powers:

  • It can create huge vortices.[43]
  • It can emit antimatter particles.[44]
  • It can project mystical blasts of energy, control electromagnetism, and perform molecular manipulation.[45]

It can also absorb energy;

  • It drained the Asgardian powers of the Wrecking Crew into the Wrecker.[46]
  • It drained the energies of the villain the Presence.[47]
  • It negated the force field of the Juggernaut.[48]

The hammer also accidentally endowed the hero Union Jack with the ability to generate electricity,[49] and it can remove any harmful radiation or toxins from a host.[50]

There are also several rarely used abilities of Mjolnir:

  • Tracking a person.[51]
  • Locating mystical items.[52]
  • Detecting illusions.[53]
  • Projecting images, as Thor has shown a glimpse of Asgard to his fellow Avenger Iron Man.[54]

As a former religious relic, Mjolnir is also lethal to the undead, causing creatures such as vampires to burst into flame and crumble to dust.[55]

When in possession of the "Odinforce" that usually empowers his father, Thor has proven capable of killing Galactus when the latter is very well fed and far beyond his normal power level, along with the multiverse-devouring Black Winter entity.[56] He also greatly helped to hold back the corpse of The First Firmament, an entire multiverse of energy, which was threatening to destroy the entire current Marvel multiverse.[57]"
